Because the debt underlying the statutory demand was paid following the defendant's failure to respond, the liquidation proceedings were dismissed; an order for solicitor/client indemnity costs was declined because the substantive entitlement to recover the levies had not been judicially determined and the proceedings were resolved by default, but an increased costs award (50% uplift) was justified given inevitability of payment or liquidation; interim non-publication order was lifted.
